Great college with good facilities.

Placements: In general, JMC students don't get placed after graduation; they go to higher education, like masters. In master's, they get help from faculty members. But if you want to work, you will get less amount in income but you will get good experience and real-time knowledge. The average package is 300000-400000.

Faculty: Faculty members are great; they have real-time experience in the field. All professors are knowledgeable in their own field and very friendly, which helps in the curriculum. You can access them; they will provide help anyhow. Overall, there is good college faculty and you can join in to have a great experience.

Review on Bhawanipur Education Society College.

Placements: Our college provides placements and gives all the students the opportunity to achieve success in their future. Companies like TCS, ICICI Bank, YES, Whirlpool, and many more renowned companies come to take interviews. Average packages can be up to 8 LPA and even more. My course needs at least 60% marks to get admission. Some important roles can be Journalism, News Reader, RJ (Radio Jockey), Cinematographer, and many more.

Infrastructure: Our department has a Lab and also a Studio for shooting and recording purposes. It is well-decorated and maintained. Even our lab consists of a small library where all kinds of books related to journalism and mass communication are included. Even extracurricular books are also kept there. Classrooms have 2 air conditioners, a projector, a notice board. Our college doesn't have any hostel facilities. But they do arrange PGs (paying guests) for the outstation students.

Faculty: Teachers of our course are well-trained and experienced. They are all very helpful and teach us well. They are always available to help us in every possible way they can. This subject is a modern one and very much needed in today's world. This subject teaches you many new things that people do not even know. Semester exams are quite tough, and even class tests occur on a regular basis. The pass percentage is 40% for the main subjects and 30% for the general subjects.

Other: Journalism and Mass Communication is a modern course and very needed in today's world. This has a broad field to work in various industries. We can learn editing video, photos, audio. We learn camera angles, shooting, new media, communication research. It would have been better if we got chances to work with big industries. About fests, our college is very renowned in whole Kolkata. Almost every month there are 2-3 fests either conducted by the college authority or the students or any specific department itself. Extracurricular activities such as dance, music, acting, NCC, NSS, many more are there. Workshops are held frequently. Celebrities are called in fests, and even actors come to our college for their film promotions.
